    Holy Roller seems like a perfect guy to have as your upper midcard blue chipper star of the future.

    JD Bratt also looks like a million bucks, is he gonna be one of the more popular stars in North America?

    That "Danger" Doc Ranger fella sounds like a perfect veteran retired wrestler turned Texas promoter

    I say go right ahead since you're not really looking to profit off of their use, it'd be more than fine to use for databases and pics.

    Could have it where the smaller of the 3 has big financial backing and more popularity in their home region compared to the other two.

    If we're running ideas for Hoss, I'd definitely recommend a South West based company from California known as Golden State Wrestling, who have long since run their competition out of the region and have sole control of California, but in the late 1970s, the two co-owners, members of an elite...

    Interesting idea too, you could have a wrestling rivalry between two companies, North Star Wrestling and Lone Star Wrestling, a company in Texas

    Ah gotcha, then in that case for 1980 I'd recommend Respectful Wrestling or Silver Age Pro Wrestling. Depends if you want it to be a territory or a regional promotion.

    Largely because I think depending on the size it works great for an indy/medium company that's on a streaming platform and pumps out episodes pre-taped. Like Impact or Sinclair era ROH.

    Could do one that's based in the Midwest/Canada and call it North Star Wrestling, have it run on either Episodic Entertainment or Comic Book Dark.

    I actually had a whole idea for a wrestling universe set in the present but there was some beginning lore where one guy used to run the entire North American wrestling business until he was arrested on tax evasion in the 50s, after which, all the big wrestlers started their own companies.

    Yeah if you're a developmental territory, you're always gonna be fucked unless you're a child company.

    Yeah like the tiny-small jump is arguably the easiest in the game because you can just hire people from other companies still and you can have as big a roster as you want.

    So been thinking, is the Small-Medium size change the hardest jump in the whole game? I feel like transitioning to medium size is extremely difficult unless you have a big surplus of funds to eat the inevitable revenue hit from rising costs. Its made worse by production penalties and the cost...

    Austin's contract with USWA expired in early 1990, and Flair and Arn specifically scoped him out as a potential new member, meanwhile Pillman had been a talent with WCW since around 1988, and starting teaming with top babyface Barry Windham around 1991, before turning heel and joining the...

    Now I actually think that fits more in line with Family Friendly Sports Entertainment. Both are definitely similar so I guess it's just up to interpretation, since both are described as:

    I will say, it took some time to decide what the product should be for each company, so in the end, I settled with: AWA (Core Product: Silver Age Pro Wrestling / Current Product: Classic Balanced) I struggled with this one since with Eric Bischoff as the booker, he'd push the company into a...

    Well, I can say that I am 99% finished with my alternate timeline database: "1992 - The Death of Vince McMahon", so it only feels right to share it and have a couple folks possibly playtest it for any bugs or issues that come up. https://www.mediafire.com/folder/cojkkyyr6rr58/1992_TDOM It's...
